All EPL managers are under pressure if they have a run of bad results. Swansea are still only two points from safety in 18th place and in with a fighting chance of staying up, largely down to the 5 wins secured in the first 8 games of Clement’s tenure. Swansea were rooted to the bottom of the table when Clement took over.

@Nembo_Kid - you’re still remaining silent on the managerial change at Leicester City. You were badly wrong on this one. Still no comment on the brave and correct decision of the Leicester City board to fire the under performing Claudio Ranieri and the inspired appointment of Craig Shakespeare? 6 wins from 6 under the stewardship of Shakespeare - 5 in the EPL and a place in the European Cup quarter final secured.

Funny how you didn’t think Guidolin’s prior performances in actually saving Swansea from relegation in the prior season counted? You said Guidolin deserved to be sacked becasue he only collected one point from 6 games.

The difference is four of those games Guidolin failed to win came against sides in the top 5.

4 of the games Clement has failed to collect points against are sides firmly embroiled in the relegation battle.

Why don’t you apply your standards equally? Is it your rampant xenophobia that is preventing you from presenting an objective viewpoint.

Ranieri got Leicester to the CL with a league win, he topped his group earning them a good draw, picked up a superb result away in Sevilla where they grabbed an away goal and had an excellent opportunity to progress. The fact you are crediting Shakespeare for that is risible.

League performances have improved but Ranieri should have been allowed to see the season out. Amazing how you will defend a guy like Clement who has achieved nothing in football but yet think it’s right for managers with a proven pedigree in Ranieri and Guidolin to be blackguarded.

Oooooffft

Why don’t you practice what you preach, you bitter little school kid. I schooled you on Graeme Souness yesterday. You wrote him off as a failure in Italy blissfully unaware of the key role Souness played in 1985 in securing Sampdoria’s second highest ever league finish, first ever top level silverware and European qualification for the first time.

You’re on such shaky grounds any time you take me on all you can do is resort to throwing personal insults. That’s a scurrilous accusation that I’m xenopbobic.

Are you mad.souness flopped in Italy. Sampdoria improved when he was chased and he is a laughing stock in Turin

You did not and rather than getting catty with me, how about you tackle the complete double standards you apply when treating managers based on their nationality.

We already established Souness failed in Italy yesterday.

You’re handing Billy Bullshit his arse again Geoff. The pretend Italian alleging someone else’s judgement is being clouded by rampant xenophobia is comedy gold.

Geoff is an excellent debater, I would say he has schooled the forums Walter Mitty more than anybody else, the other lad would do well to stop drawing him out.

Didn’t I send you running for the hills yesterday, Matty.

At least Boycott doesn’t shy away from a hiding, unlike you.

You made a complete and utter fool of yourself yesterday mate. Blake exposed you as a complete bullshitter. And despite several attempts to move the goalposts you never laid a glove on me.

You’re a complete laughing stock on here now Billy Bullshit.

You ran away from me, mate.

I don’t think it looks good for you hiding behind Blake.

Entertaining reading Nembo_Kid v boycott round 45. Boycott has torn him apart on souness. @Nembo_Kid resembles this fella from Monty Python
